Family break

Really loved the property, lovely village near to lots of places to see, unfortunately clearwell caves were closed and the local pub was closed until the day after we left for a holiday which was a shame as we particularly wanted somewhere we’d could walk to with the kids for a pint and some food. The bonus was that the local park was right next door which my granddaughter was very happy about

Cosy little get away

A very lovely cottage, comfortable and cosy. The owner has thought of everything that you could need, a selection of glasses to suit your drinking needs and a fully stocked kitchen with every dish and utensil you will need, a bonus of a selection of tea's and coffee. A beautiful garden to sit and relax in, games, books and DVD's.......no need to worry that you might have forgotten something...it is all here! Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect cottage in perfect place

What a gorgeous place. On the outside it looks tiny but inside it’s roomy and cosy and has everything you need for a great stay. The host provided cookies and coffee and teas, and there was shampoo, etc. Lots of information was provided as well about the region. The beds were comfy, the towels were good quality and all you need in the kitchen for a nice meal was there. Such lovely taste too. And it feels like someone’s second home and not just a holiday cottage. We all just loved this place.

great weekend

Many thanks we had a great stay, cottage was very clean and finished to an outstanding level, with the soft tuches of home. We felt really at home in the cottage and its location. kitchen is very homely with enough storage, pots & pans to make it easy to cook what ever we wanted. The beds were really comfortable with firm mattresses which so many hotels get so wrong. lashings of Hot water meant showering was a pleasure. We attended a wedding at Perrygrove farm which was a 3 minute drive or a 30 minute stagger back! We used to live in the forest of dean and have family there who we stay with when we come back. However the cottage was so nice and peaceful we will probably stay with you again when we come up for another extended stay. This is not a criticism of the cottage purely an observation. the fridge thinks its 747 on take off at times and distracts from conversation around the kitchen table we got used to it and it didn't detract from what was a great stay in a great location but worth a look at.

Gorgeous cottage

What can I say...thank you for a lovely stay! The cottage was absolutely beautiful and we loved everything about it. It was spotlessly clean, equipped with everything we could have wanted and more and we would love to return again in the future. Have already recommended the cottage to friends and family. Thank you so much for having us!
